We went on the Boston City Tour and we all loved it. Our kids are 8 and 10 years old and they loved being able to see the city and bike at the same time. Much better than sitting on a tour bus. The guides were knowledgeable and despite going through traffic, managed the traffic and people/kids on the tour... more

Boston by bicycle is a fantastic way to see the city and to be a part of the vibrant urban landscape. I was fortunate to have my trip itinerary suggested to me by a long time resident of Boston, who marked Urban AdvenTours as a must do activity. I booked my tour via the web for myself and four companions.... more

In planning our Boston vacation, we considered a Duck Tour, but after reading the great reviews about Urban Adventours, we wanted to do this instead. We almost didn't get to, due to a very rainy weekend. Due to the weather, we waited to book until we got to Boston and went to their store and talked to the guides. Our... more

I booked a tour based on the glowing reviews here on Trip Advisor. (I also liked the idea of doing something active.) We had light rain and drizzle during our three hour ride, but still had a blast! I rarely ride bikes anymore, but had no trouble keeping up. Likewise, my 14 year-old step-daughter was with us and had no... more

This was hands down the highlight of my group's recent three day Boston vacation. I have lived in and traveled to Boston many times, but I saw a whole new city courtesy of Urban AdvenTours. The Boston information was artfully tailored towards our tour's interests and it was amazing to be so up and close to the sights the way... more

i took this tour with a friend of mine in early June this year. It was great, managed to see all the major attractions in just that morning. And though we only made about 10 stops along the way, we got a rough idea of how the city was laid out and we could go back to the places we... more

I booked this tour based on the reviews on tripadvisor. We arrived in Boston on Thursday night - 6/4 - and I thought about booking the tour on Friday - but chose Saturday thinking that traffic would be lighter on the weekend. On Friday my fiance decided we would also take a trolley tour. Given that we did both tours... more

When my friend Julia advised me that we would be taking a 9-mile bike tour around Boston - I was skeptical to say the least. Not only had I not been on a bike in over 15 years, but the thought of zipping around a major metropolitan city made me uneasy. But, with Urban AdvenTours expert bikers and tour guides,... more

Taking the morning off prior to a conference I decided I wanted to see a bit of Boston and learn about the city and its history. Urban AdvenTours filled this time perfectly, and Greg was an informative and humourous guide. The cycling itself was easy, the time spent on the roads felt safe and the bikes were in excellent condition.... more

I took a Duck Tour last year and it was fun, but the entire time I was bouncing along 10 feet above the streets. The guide was funny and informative, but I felt very disconnected from the city. Urban AdvenTours put me right on street level where I could feel the pulse of Boston. Riding was easy and fun and... more
